Product description
The GKV is based on the same ingenious concept
as the GCKV: consistent bundling of all key functional units that are needed to reliably supply the gas
engines with the biogas produced. Unlike the GCKV,
however, where all system components are housed
in a closed container, the GKV's components such as
the gas cooler, condensate trap, liquid coolant circuit,
water cooler (required depending on the size) and
compressor are xed on a steel frame. A contactor
control handles the monitoring and control of all integrated assemblies.
The all-in-one nature of the GKV means the addition
of only one more compact unit to the adjacent assemblies of the biogas plant, gas storage tank and
gas utilisation system.
The user-friendly and reliable GKV is available in 12
performance classes, with gas ow rates ranging
from 180 to 2,100 Nm3/h.
Combining the gas supply technology in a central system is advantageous because it reduces the investment
volume for the operator, simplies planning, guarantees
reliable operation and saves on maintenance later.
The unit is fully assembled in the factory by SILOXA
engineers.
